The senior executive responsible for the global operations of Geek Plus, the warehouse robotics and automation technology provider, says customer demand led the company to go global.

Speaking to Robotics and Automation News at the recent e-commerce and logistics event, Deliver, Fung said the startup receives customer enquiries every day from all over the world.

Lit Fung, general manager of Geek Plus, said: “From 2016 to 2018, Geek Plus has delivered nearly 4,000 units of our self-driving intelligent robotics systems to more than 55 clients from various industries, including giants like Alibaba, Suning, China Post, and also customers from the third-party logistics sector as well as the pharmaceutical field.

The third edition of the invite-only and carbon-neutral Deliver series of e-logistics events took place on June 5th and 6th 2018 in London, at Twickenham Stadium, with 750 attendees – which is more than 70 per cent compared to the last edition – coming from 35 different countries.

Deliver 2019 will take place on June 5th and 6th 2019 in Lisbon, at the Estoril Congress Center, and will involve 1,200 attendees.

It’s been called the “Davos for logistics in e-commerce”, and Robotics and Automation News is very pleased to be an official media partner for the event.

Davos is, of course, the mountainous place in Switzerland where every year the world’s most powerful and influential leaders from politics, business and other sectors meet and discuss the future of the world.
